FIDEL Castro makes Wilt Chamberlain seem lame. While the NBA legend bragged he'd bedded 20,000 women, the Cuban dictator slept with 35,000, according to an upcoming documentary. "He slept with at least two women a day for more than four decades - one for lunch and one for supper.

According to that paragon of upstanding journalism, the New York Post.

If that is true (which I can't imagine!) it is really gross.

He's a Latino, what do you expect? Not all of us are pre-programmed to be cold fish.

Oh really? Sounds like the kind of dumbass stereotype that doesn't belong on babble.

Sounds like the kind of sensationalist probably CIA-driven thread that doesn't belong on Babble. (Unless I'm mistaken...)

Are you saying Doug's with the CIA?

Actually, this is just a publicity coup for the producers of a very dubious and sensationalistic movie. They knew the press would lap it up, and they have. Too bad babble fell in line to help it out.

I find this story highly unlikely. Castro isn't going to be out cruising for chicks all the time, or send his people out to do it for him. It doesn't make any sense. If he really does have two scheduled "sex breaks" every day, then it is probably with prostitutes, which would mean he's sleeping with mostly the same women over and over, perhaps in rotation. But saying he's had sex 35 000 times isn't as eye catching as saying he's slept with 35 000 women.

Have to admit though, against my better judgement, my interest is piqued to see this film now. Damn promoters and their manipulative ways!

Fascists are infamous for accusing lefties of sex scandals. Right-rightists themselves have been the most immoral and corrupt monarchs and politicians in history. And they are the scum of the earth.

I'm certain this is propaganda. I'm not very certain which side is propagating it.
